Tentative agenda

The workshop begins on Sunday evening, June 24, with a welcome reception. Presentations start on Monday morning, June 25, and end Thursday afternoon, June 28. Hotel checkout is Friday morning.

A typical daily schedule is from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., and participants are expected to take part in social team-building activities held in the evenings.

Look for a final agenda in early May.
